Curious. With a ROM that only has $0010-$8000 PRG-ROM (8000-FFFF) and has no bankswap routine, can you create a routine for it? Like if you expand the PRG and want to access the new banks. Or, do you need to change the mapper for that? Thank You.

A NES program with a bankswitch routine can't work without an actual mapper chip, no matter if you added the routine yourself or not. You'd have to specify that a mapper needs to be emulated, as with all expansion chips.

I assume you're talking about the NES here, considering the terms you used and your name.
